Slope Sedimentation

Slope Sedimentation is a marine sedimentary process in which eroded and transported sediments are deposited, reworked, and redistributed on continental slopes primarily by gravity-driven mass movements and sediment gravity flows, producing characteristic slope stratigraphic and geomorphic architectures.
